The Previous Decades Were Cooler Than This One, and These Photos Prove it
The State of Pop
This photo was taken in 1986 and marked the shooting of an episode of The Late Show Starring Joan Rivers, which aired from 1986 to 1987. Four very different individuals appear in this picture: Van Halen’s lead singer David Lee Roth, host Joan Rivers, American comedian Pee-wee Herman, and British musician Elton John.
In the ’80s, like today, the television talk-show was the format in which people from all different kinds of pop culture got together. After The Late Show Starring Joan Rivers was canceled in 1987, Rivers went on to host The Joan Rivers Show, which aired from 1989 to 1993.
